Anchorage, Alaska |
| With an estimated 298,192 residents in 2016, it is Alaska's most populous city and contains more than 40 percent of the state's total population. Anchorage has been named All-America City four times, in 1956, 1965, 1984/85, and 2002, by the National Civic League. It has also been named by Kiplinger as the most tax friendly city in the United States. |

| Experience the wild beauty of Alaska by train with the Alaska Railroad. See the latest train schedules, book tickets, and explore Alaskan train routes and excursions. The Alaska Railroad connects over 400 miles of Alaska's highlights: from Kenai Fjords National Park in Seward, Anchorage, Talkeetna, Denali National Park, and on to Fairbanks in the Interior. While rail travel is generally slower than driving, the views are rewarding as the train plies a route through many areas not accessible by road. |
